I attended a media briefing where I learnt about the great work that Abby DLD group of Colleges UK has been doing in providing quality pre-university education since 1931.

Going by the fact that most of our teens finish from secondary school as early as 14 years or before 18 years in Nigeria, Abbey DLD Colleges provide A level education and foundation courses to enable students seeking to attend UK universities to learn educationally and socio-culturally how to adapt to studying in UK.

With 4 campuses in the UK to 3 recently located at Manchester, Cambridge and London, these campuses boast of having many Npgerians pass through in excellent grades and landing UK University offers.

At the event today, where I attended along side prominent print and online media companies, the Student Admissions Manager of UK's Abbey Group of Colleges, Mr. Muazu Jalaluddeen explained that the quality of education and welfare of the students is priority at the Abbey DLD Colleges. He revealed that their class sizes are no more than 8 students per class with a robust welfare system.

It's heart warming to know that the Oxford, Cambridge, University College London (UCL) and
Imperial College London, that regularly feature in the world’s top ten and employers
around the world are schools that Abbey DLD College graduates get as first choice offers.

disclosed that there are still many wealthy Nigerian parents who are prepared
to pay for high quality education for their children.

When asked about the rise in costs due to the fall in Naira, he said that “While the government’s restrictions have caused the cost of
UK education to rise for Nigerian families, there are still many wealthy
Nigerians who want the best for their children and are prepared to pay for high
quality education.

“We hope that the government will exempt foreign education
from currency restrictions in the future. We need to ensure that Nigerian
families are not penalised for wanting the best international education for
their children,” said Mr. Jalaluddeen.

One of the biggest legacies parents can leave to their
children, he argued, is high quality education such as the one offered by Abbey
DLD Group of Colleges, a set of pre-university schools that prepare students
for admissions in some of UK’s most prestigious universities.

The Abbey DLD College Group comprises three first-class
independent colleges throughout the UK and boasts an unrivalled international
reputation.

The Group specialises in helping students from across the
world achieve the personal, social and academic growth needed for success at
the UK’s top universities.

Providing a secure and caring environment for international
students, each of the colleges which are based in London, Manchester, and
Cambridge, offer contemporary, state-of-the art, single ensuite rooms with
onsite security 24 hours a day seven days a week.

The Group offers Gold Standard educational provisions to
enable pupils to achieve their full potential in a challenging and caring
environment. Teaching throughout the Group combines the best of traditional and
modern methods and provides access to the latest classroom technology.

This year the three colleges combined had an exceptional
year for results. The Group achieved a 99% A-Level pass rate with 52% of
international students achieving A*-A grades. The group also boasted 394
university acceptances in 2016 and 44% were confirmed at the Russell Group
Universities.

There is a 18+ very interesting stage play coming to theatre in Abuja by 2MG Theatre showing at the British Council and it is "Overnight Trial" an adaptation of Aerial Dorfman's "Death and the Maiden".

So it's time to get creative
with your phone camera and win N50,000 on Sept 26, 2017!

It's been a tough past week so I am grateful for Sunday heralding a new week. I have been burdened to create a Code of Conduct for members of the League of Extraordinary Men (LExM) on Facebook. So while I couldn't attend service, I sat down and wrote this down on my note pad, then typed it. This came in a bid to begin to restructure the group to ensure it is serving the right purpose and the right men.

If you follow me on Instagram, you will notice, I put up my pastor and coach's picture last weekend because I was heart broken. He is Pastor Goodheart Ekwueme, the outgone (as much as I hate to use that) resident pastor of my local assembly in Abuja. I and all those who knows him, are going to miss him soooooooo much, it hurts.
